[Verse 1: Pharrell]
Unzip your skirt
Take off your blouse
I hope your toes are painted
Cause you gon dance in your undies all over the house

[Bridge]
When your eyes are closed
I hope I'm the man you see (the man you see)
Cause if not, I want you to know
Tonight I plan to be
Is this for me? HO!

[Hook]
Slow motion like a dream
But real time is what it seems
I love the way she dance
Slow motion like a dream
But real time is what it seems
I love the way she dance
See I love the way she dance
Girl, I love the way you dance

[Verse 2: Pharrell]
I am in your aquarium
Are you a mermaid or something?
Is it possible to marry one?
Big tits, fat ass and turquoise skin

[Bridge]
When your eyes are closed
I hope I'm the man you see (the man you see)
Cause if not, I want you to know
Tonight I plan to be
Is this for me? HO!

[Hook]
Slow motion like a dream
But real time is what it seems
I love the way she dance
Slow motion like a dream
But real time is what it seems
I love the way she dance
See I love the way she dance
Girl, I love the way you dance
Calling all cars, please arrest her
(She's a criminal in my dreams)
She just stole my heart
(It's an A.P.B.)

[Hook]
Slow motion like a dream
But real time is what it seems
I love the way she dance
Slow motion like a dream
But real time is what it seems
I love the way she dance
See I love the way she dance
Girl, I love the way you dance

[Outro: Pharrell, Shae & Chad]
Kissing you, kissing me, it's Euphoria
Remission two, remission three, it's kissing four of ya
(When sparks fly, sparks fly) I think that's love
(When sparks fly, sparks fly) Don't you think
Close your eyes, hold my hand, concentration
No destination
Just dance on constellations
(When sparks fly, when sparks fly) I think that's love
(When sparks fly, when sparks fly) Don't you think
Excuse me, but girl come with me
See you and I can be each other's company
Can't you see
(When sparks fly, sparks fly) I think that's love
(When sparks fly, sparks fly) Don't you think

N.E.R.D. (officially stylized as NER*D, as seen on their covers) is a backronym that stands for No-One Ever Really Dies.

N.E.R.D. is a hip-hop and rock band whose members include Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo, also known as The Neptunes, and Shae Haley. The band was formed as a side project by the Neptunes in 1999. Williams and Hugo had known each other since 1985 when they were 12, and they met Shae Haley a few years later in high school. Hugo and Williams signed a deal when they graduated high school in 1992 and eventually, Hailey joined them when N.E.R.D. was formed.

In September 2001 the band released their first album, In Search Of in Europe. They used digital production for the project but when they prepared for the worldwide release a year later they opted to re-record the album with a live funk rock band known as Spymob. Two years later in March of 2004, they released their second album, Fly or Die. Unfortunately, the two albums didn’t have nearly as much success as The Neptunes production work—collectively the two albums barely broke a million copies sold. In 2005 the group supposedly disbanded because of a dispute with Virgin Records, but Pharrell contradicted this claim in an April 2008
